Corn Removal

Corns are similar to calluses. They're formed from a build-up of dead skin cells that create thick, hardened areas on your feet.

If you’re embarrassed by your corns, or you’re experiencing significant pain or discomfort, corn removal surgery may be right for you. Corn removal at Surgical Arts of Inland Empire is a minor surgery that will leave minimal or no scarring.

Am I a Candidate for Corn Removal?

If you've unsuccessfully tried other less invasive approaches to remove your corn, surgery may be the best option available for you. Following an in-office consultation, we will be able to determine if you are a good candidate for corn removal surgery.

What Happens During Corn Removal?

Corn removal surgery is a quick outpatient procedure that is generally completed in less than 30 minutes. Prior to surgery, a local anesthetic will be applied to numb the treatment area.

Using a sterile scalpel, your surgeon will carefully shave off the dead layers of skin, all the way down to the root of your corn. You may experience slight bleeding during this process and stitches may be necessary to close the wound. Following removal, your surgeon will apply a bandage to cover the treatment area.

After Corn Removal

Your surgeon will provide you will specific aftercare instructions to properly care for your wound. Corn removal is a minor surgery, so your recovery should be relatively fast – lasting 3 to 7 days.

You will need to limit your normal activities until your foot has fully healed. Wearing normal shoes will also be prohibited during recovery.
